Spider Mites
I bought this plant from Home Depot and discovered that it had spider mites a short while later. I quarantined the cat palm and treated it for spider mites. About a month later, I noticed small beige caterpillar like insects in the soil. I threw it away. Good riddance!

Giving this 4 stars as my plant arrived UPSIDE DOWN! The box was falling apart and there was soil everywhere... I wasn't expecting the plant to last but once I pulled it out the box it looked alright. I am concerned that the plant won't survive for much longer. I've had it for 1 day and I've watered it, put it into sunlight and some of the leaves are starting to droop and curl already.
With that said, it is a beautiful plant and I do hope it survives. Great value for money if the box arrives the right way up.

I loved the plant. But after a while, I noticed it was infested with spider mites. I tried to hose them off and use pesticide but they kept coming back. I’ve just had to throw the palm. Very sad.

Disappointed as well
I agree with the other review. I was very excited for this plant but it had a black stem to begin with and I did everything it recommended hoping it would be successful and it just keeps turning black and dying.

Very disappointed. The plant was supposed to be grown in shade and needed medium light, however when you get it it says it needs high light. It also says its an 9.25 inch pot ... sure its 9.25 height but its 7.5 inches diameter which is normally meant by growing pot dimensions. The worst is though, it says it comes in size 36-42. Ours is 31 inches and thats measured from bottom of the pot which means 9.25 inches are just pot.....
